Some of the limericks on the Gransnet threads are really good and worthy of publication I think .
Some don’t keep to the rules. I know games are for enjoyment and it’s all about the taking part but I wondered if anyone else would feel like me ? Could we have a thread of limericks which stick to the 88558 syllable rules ?
I hope it’s not out of order to suggest this. What do gamesters think? AIBU ?

Said he - I’m not that sort of buck
Whose only goal is a quick f***blush
I'd like you to know
Lim(e)ricks should flow
And mustn’t end in muck !

I think it is time for a sleep
These lim(e)ricks are making me weep
Praps after a nap
Our brains will come back
And we won’t have to use the bleep

Morning all . Thinking cap on ?

here was an old man from Featherstonhaugh
Who rode in an old coach and four
Two horses went lame
And I got the blame
For driving them hard on the moor .

We’d gone down the lane to Cholmondeley

With a lass who was quite comely
She was crimped and coiffed

You do not disappoint, Bathsheba ?

We’d gone down the lane to Cholmondeley
With a lass who was quite comely
She was crimped and coiffed
Dressed just in her shift
The coachman reacted dumbly

He was an old boy from Frome
